I finally got it by copying and pasting the info from the
"properties" function. Not really a video but a really well done animation of all the machine's pieces and parts. I have a PC and a new ISP. I seldom have the video troubles I had for years. This one just didn't want to do anything, off the daily board or this one. |

Oh OK, glad you got it straightened out.
Youtube has some live action, some animations, some slide shows, and some what-the-hell-did-I-just-see. However they are all videos, that's what they do, that's who they are.

That was an amazing piece of equipment. If my math is right, the cutter face is moving at close to 2 meters per second at the outer edge.

Yes, when I was told the maximum speed of a Chinook's rotor blades was 102 rpm it seemed slow. When I questioned it they said the tips are doing 500mph, and if you add the helicopter moving at 200mph, you're getting close to breaking the sound barrier. OH... duh, I'm glad somebody figures all that shit out.
I'm sure somebody figured out how fast the can spin the rock cutters and probably adjust it as the material changes. They have a lot invested in that machine, a big bet.
